Even then, sometimes, Daddy had to help her with it, probably because of her, ahem, ample figure. And, here's something I didn't know - I thought you were in England!

It seems like boots are too hot on days that are just cool, but it's too cool to wear sandals like I do during the summer. So, many times I end up wearing pants (and socks and shoes) and hating it!!

Yes, side zippers were always in women's jeans. When they began to use the front zipper a lot of the women of the time did not like them and chose to go with stretch pants instead. The side zip gave a much smoother look to the garments.

Watch old reruns of the Dick Van Dyke show and look at Laura Petrie's slacks. They were womanly feminine articles with side zippers that enhanced her figure and femininity like no unisex jeans ever could.<br /> Side zippers are SO much Thorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10343588126622181628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-81641624602578242192012-12-10T04:36:00.441-08:002012-12-10T04:36:00.441-08:00Thank you for posting this.

I will be able to have one to match the summer dress I've just begun. Oh, and it's a good hint to put it on the same hanger.<br /><br />Lesley xHousewife59https://www.blogger.com/profile/12485051347795187632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9186456.post-19995764657073625852012-12-10T03:41:30.937-08:002012-12-10T03:41:30.937-08:00I love the dress and hair scrunchy, but I really l...I love the dress and hair scrunchy, but I really love the ornaments ideas.

Very pretty dress and you look lovely in it.<br /><br />I like to purchase those suspender jaw clips and add them to a self- fabric scrunchie then gather up the back of a loose top or dress for a more shapely fit.<br /><br />Love the print on your fabric too!<br /><br />Mrs. J.
